You encounter an organism with the following characteristics: marine, endothermic, and uses lungs. Which of the following is most likely to also be TRUE about this organism?
a. it has a closed circulatory system
b. It has hemolymph
c. it has a high surface area to volume ratio
d. all of these options are likely to be true
e. it has gills
Homework Answers
Ans) a. It has a closed circulatory system.
Since the organism is marine, endothermic (organisms that are able to maintain a constant body temperature, regardless of their ambient temperature ) and uses lungs , this must be a mammal ( eg: whale).
So it has a closed circulatory system. Hemolymph(fluid equivalent to blood in most invertibrates, occupying the haemocoel) and gills are absent. And do not have high surface area to volume ratio.

Which of the following statements is correct about the process of breathing in the MAMMALIAN Respiratory System? Strong contraction of the Diaphragm exerts a positive force on the Trachea and Bronchioles, which pushes air into the lungs through positive pressure. Breathing with Lungs must be more efficient than breathing with Gills, since atmospheric air has less oxygen available, when compared to the amount of oxygen dissolved in water. During Inhalation, contraction of the Rib Muscles and Diaphragm increases the volume...
